since Rosyth eliminate PV, the only way out now come under phase 2B is Grassroot. No other choice. i won't dare to think of phase 2C for Rosyth, bec the heat of competition is too intense.


under Grassroot, can also get to choose other schools besides Rosyth.

Can't join Grassroot as Rosyth falls under AMK GRC but my hse under Aljunied even within 1km, so hard luck ah ~

I know how intense is the competition for phase 2C as we've juz gone thru once last year, and we got balloted out

Hi, report here


I live at Kembangan & the nearest Primary School is >3km away (sigh), Im int in Maha Bodhi at Ubi, I heard they don’t have PV, is it difficult to get in? Any suggestion? Any mommy have the same situation like me?

I am glad someone started this thread!


I am eying RGPS but i heard they will be moving location soon. My question now is will the phase 2C be based on the new address or the old address? What is the cut off?

Currently staying >5km but plan to move in nearer by this year…

Can someone help?

The permanent address will be used for P1 registration.

Any idea how long to take to withdraw at first sch and whether we can immediately go register at sch b?

Withdrawal should be quite fast, and yes, you can register immediately at another school. One parent will normally station him/herself at the first school, while the husband/wife will be at the other school. Then once decided to withdraw, one will do the withdrawal and the other will register at school B.

But don't do it at the very last moment as you have to take into consideration of queuing time, computer delay, etc.

hi Chengkek,


phase 2C balloting is based on -
rgps permanent address at 21, Hillcrest Road, Singapore 289072. NOT the temporary 2 years occupancy at 53 Mount Sinai (from Jan 2014 - Nov 2015).

as your daughter born 2008, she'll start 2015 P1 AFTERNOON session at Mount Sinai road (Holland). This used to be the former Raffles Junior College premises twenty years ago. Come 2016 once school kick off single session, your girl by then P2 return to Hillcrest road permanently, study morning session. Additonal brand new buildings, new classroom + new sports facilities welcome her eagerly.

overall, your girl need only study one year at Mount Sinai. The rest P2 to P6 will be at Hillcrest.

before you start buying or shift house <1km to Hillcrest for phase 2C, you may call up MOE helpline at tel: 68722220. Supply them your new postal code address. The duty officer on the spot can confirm if your new address is truly indeed < 1 km.

this is important. In the past there were cases before where parents complained why their condo block is not less than 1 km but within 1 to 2 km, yet their neighbours's block strangely lies less than 1 km. So one has to be careful.

another reason is property agent in an eager state to close business deal earn commission fast may anyhow say your condo is less than 1 km. So safer to best check with MOE helpline. They have this computer software that detects like radar instantly your distance range, based on the postal code address you supply them.

That's because her DS1 is already a student there, so her younger sons will all be admitted via phase 1 registration.
